Coz there's nothing complex about the golf swing at all. 🤣 So long as you keep it narrowed down to your supinators, pronators, internal and external rates of rotation, primary, secondary and pelvic tilts and pressure release points along with matching weight shift, hip turn to shoulder girdle ratio and, obviously, the accompanying tilt/switch effects paired with proper club face orientation relative to your swing plane (and path) while applying the appropriate downward angle of attack then your spine angle and ball position should readily match up in order for the coefficient of restitution to properly impact the moment of inertia in order to enable you to accurately assess your launch angle and spin rate so that you might properly evaluate whether or not you need to change your grip and start all over!

Really, the funny thing is all I wanted was help to determine which motor to buy ( for those that didn't remember the question😁😁) and I did get it ☺️but yesterday when I called a dealer to see about the purchase he told me that it won't work on my short transom boat or at least not safely ☹️ so now I'm back to the long tail which will work.

Bobby Could you not put a static plate on for a higher transom?
bobby b. Posted February 24, 2019 Author Posted February 24, 2019 3 hours ago, 1farmer said: Could you not put a static plate on for a higher transom? Yes but there are multiple issues with my plan of totally replacing the outboard with the shallow water drive for both hunting and fishing. If I used the shallow water drive in the marshes I typical hunt areas where there are no wake allowed because of swamping other guys in layout boats so I would never plane off which is no problem for either the long tail motor or the shallow water drive motors. However, since the shallow water drives are much heavier than my existing outboard and that they extend further back off the transom, when I try try to plane off as in a fishing trip on the lake using the shallow water drive the front end of the boat will not come down because the boat is so light and because of the weight distribution. If there was a guy sitting in the front of the boat it might be OK. When the dealer told me this, it got me thinking that sometimes in a strong headwind the front end of the boat gets a little squirrel even now even with the outboard. I even considered replacing the boat with an all welded heavier boat which are built to handle shallow water drive outboard but I am just finishing several weeks of rework and welding of the boat blind on the existing boat and am not interested in a do-over on a new boat. Plus the heavier all welded boat requires even a bigger shallow water drive with a pivoting 180 degree prop because the normal gear reverse will not get a heavy boat unstuck off a mud flat in the marsh. It just like fishing or anything, it's hard to find a single boat or whatever that will meet every need 100%. My other boat is a fish/ski and I find it lacking at times in fishing or water sports. I've attached a link a shallow water drive video that some find find interesting. Thanks for your idea. Bobby
